Well i haven't been extremely active as you'll can imagine rebuilding year or 2 doesn't require you to be checking in daily and when you're losing there's not much you can say in formus!
But i can't be a guy who post awards and power rankings and other fun things on the forum when winning and then completely ignore the forum when losing. So this is a quick chime in and hopefully sparks some end of season convos.
1st off with 2 games remaining i think we need to start thinking on and discussing who WE think is the league MVP. Also put together a league First & Second Team (position specific).
2nd and i usually leave this to my man Frosty but we have to have end of season power rankings before we head into the playoffs. Clearly its easy to look and see the teams making the playoffs but this season is interesting because there are quite a few tied records in playoff spots who's better team and WHY????
Lastly with the final 8 decided (no one can lose their playoff spot at this point) Is it a done deal that the promotion team will come from the great 8? and are they in a 2 team race? Is there anyone or any way the Big 8 can STEAL a promotion bid? Should be a fun playoff as the Big 8 top i believe can all beat each other. And the Great 8 final will be a special game worth watching (predicted to be Tigers vs Philly) but i am not fully ready to say Frosty or Space can't get hot and go on a run.
Lets spark some end of season convos!!!!!
And the Last Lastly.... Draft is coming up. I am interested to see or find out who's investing and who isn't???? we have 2 teams that are new teams that took over teams who no longer signed in. So i believe when you join BB you get 10 draft points and as new members they'll want to use those points but in reality do they understand how the draft works and will they make good ranking choices. Along with that Pearl City seems like a knowing manager i am sure he will have some draft hope. Both New York and Ballstar are active managers with high picks. And then lastly Walnut, Crosstown, and Bucs are ALL extremely competitive managers who surprisingly find themselves in draft position. To give some insight on the BucsBlue draft thought. Unless I have a top 5 pick i dont like spending money and points on the draft. Now if i have LOTS stored up from years of not using them then yes i will take a look at what we are working with. Last year with a final 3 pick i was able to land the highest salary rookie, and a REALLY strong prospect and that was with 0 scouting points invested. I am in a position now where best i pick is 8.... so I dont think spending points to find out our draft doesn't have 8 worthy players is dumb. I would rather stock pile and get to D2. finish with a top 5 draft pick in D2 and then have TONS of points to invest.... Anyone else draft thoughts or strategies???
